Persimmon-Diospyros kaki 'Fuju Jiro'

The Fuju Jiro Persimmon is a traditional, non-astringent Asian variety that can be savored both firm and fully ripe. When firm, its flavor resembles melon; when soft, the flesh becomes creamy and intensely sweet. This Fuyu-type fruit is round, flattened, and features a shiny orange skin with tender, mild flesh. The tree displays an elegant, layered structure with glossy medium-green leaves that transform into vibrant orange, amber, and sienna hues in autumn. For best fruit production, ensure consistent watering throughout August.
